From right to left: 2 (The Market Hotel) is locally listed, dating from the late 18th century. 4 (Lloyds TSB) is locally listed, dating from the late 19th century. 4a (Carphone Warehouse) is grade II listed, dating from the early 17th century - for listing particulars see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1377947. For many years it was occupied by La Trobes, a gift and toy shop that had been trading in Reigate from 1911 to 1980, at first on the opposite side of the High Street, before moving to these premises. The previous occupants had been Eames Outfitters, hence the words on the front. 6 (partly hidden by the tree) is probably of 18th century origin and is grade II listed - see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1029121. On the right is Tunnel Road, leading to Reigate Tunnel (see Image).
